Oh when the Cobras...

Once again the Cobras won the toss and elected to run against the stiff breeze that was coming sweeping across the Green Mile B Field. Shebeen Boys put the ball high into the air only to force and early error by the rusty Cobras, scrum Shebeen Boys. Tackle after tackle the Cobras were relentless in defence and with the wind at their backs the Shebeen Boys were unable to turn their first 10 minutes of pressure into points, with a missed penalty shot at goal. Other than the first ten minutes of the game the Shebeen Boys looked as deadly as a baby sea turtle, with the Cobras running a riot against the stiff breeze to go over 4 times in the first half, wrapping up the bonus point.

The second half meant a few changes to the Cobras side, with an injection of pace and passion the Cobras were never going to be stopped, and the points machine carried on with their dirty habits, points....Two awards on the evening, against all odds with a well earned start, flying winger Dillon X went over for a fantastic try and some seriously aggressive runs down the touch line, not bad for a guy who weighs about 68kg. With a huge effort like this its going to be hard for the man to be forced to the bench. The other award went to one of the finer signings of the season, the all physical and aggressive Nic Roslee who came on the field with the intent to do some serious harm, and that is exactly what he did. After smoking some poor "Shebbie" in a tackle he proceeded to run all over the show, leaving a few bodies lying chewing grass behind him, the man just can't be stopped, and it is guys like him who will be a huge influence come the play-offs, not only on the field, but he seems to know a few songs for the changeroom, brilliant imput! Final score 49-0 to the Cobras.

This is what the log looks like after round 7...

Once again in true Cobras style and spirit, things got messy in the changeroom with a large amount of beer consumed everyone had a smile on their faces and drinking out of their right hands knowing the job had been done, next week, bigger and harder things to come....this is it Cobras. Big thanks to WADDA for the jol on Wednesday night, was an awesome vibe and the place is just gettin better and better, unbelievable stuff!

Oh so brave...
